Could Be Worse-

We all could be Chargers fans. I will tell you what, if I were a Chargers fan or player or coach even for that matter, and they miss the playoffs by one game, I would cut all ties with the NFL. That Cutler "fumble" was the worst call I have ever seen. 10Xs worse than Bradys against the Raiders.

[DTro]

Yeah, they got the shaft a couple of time that game.

Just saw Sportscenter. How does this happen?

Instead of an "itchy trigger finger", the refs had an "itchy whistle". The play was blown dead thinking it was an incomplete pass. A pre-mature whistle IMO. Refs should let these plays continue and if questionable, let it be reviewed by either a challenge or by the booth if under 2 minutes remaining in the half/game.

DTRO was right, earlier a WR (can't remember who) made a catch, went down with the ball and a safety took the ball out his hands and took off running, and they let that one go as well.

It's called an inadvertent whistle the play stops at that point.

The referee thought it was an in complete pass it happens they make mistakes.

I doubt they will change the rule to let players continue to play after the WHISTLE BLOWS!...LOL

The earlier call the replay equipment was not working.

Get over it!....

Big deal the referee thought it was an in complete pass it happens they make mistakes. Play better football and all is well.

Unless this situation happens to the Vikings right? That call cost them the game period!

[DTro]

Dang....I was never under it

As far as the last “oops” whistle. Yes of course they make mistakes, but they need to learn not to blow the whistle so dang fast. Especially within that 2 minute window in a tight game. Contrary to what people think, no matter how good you play, the officials can still make a huge difference in the outcome of a game.

[eyepatrol]

Amen to that dtro!

[PierBridge]

Of course it impacted the game and it may or probably did cost them the game.

My get over it remark was more out of laughter over the "cut all ties with the NFL" part of the post it's just a game and one bad call...

And the "play better" comment was directed toward maybe stopping them on 4th and goal from the 8yd and the 2 point conversion "SWEET CALL" along with the SD receiver keeping his foot in-bounds in order to kick the winning FG!

[Northlander]

ess what the latest rule change to come out is.

It could be worse, we could be Green Bay fans.

Even if they win the Super Bowl, I would never want to be a Green bay fan....
